I will provide the parameters for an Apophysis flame.
You tweak it and then come back to this thread and post a link back to your uploaded work.
Each time the parameters will center around a certain aspect of Apophysis that you need to be proficient in ... in order to produce a post worthy image.
The key (in my experience) to creating a great flame is that once having moved the 'transforms' around and watching the 'preview' window the results of those movements ... once you start to get something that is pleasing to your minds' eye ... minute manipulations are in order. Forget your mousing skills at this point ... you need and require finer adjustments for this small window of creativity that opens up. Knowledge of this single aspect of Apophysis will go a long way towards successfully creating a great abstract.
So, in conjunction with the above noted hint/tip/advice ... this first assignment/challenge is focussed on the basic functions found on the "Triangle" tab for manipulating transforms ... initially. Then creativity is key.
PM me for the parameters. I would like to keep the images created from these parameters restricted to Caedes only. And for that reason, will not post the parameters openly in this thread.
All you need do is 'copy and paste' the parameters I will provide into a blank flame, or a selected random one.
See you back here with your results.
Have fun, and by all means if you have any questions ... post them to this thread. Hopefully, 'we' can get a dialogue happening between those wishing or wanting to give Apophysis a try and those with some experience under their belts.
For those that have not as yet tried to create an abstract using Apophysis and want to ... go here (click to download) for Apo 2.05beta2Z+C++ ... or ... go here (click to accept the download and it should start automatically) for Apophysis 2.06c.
Both versions are free. The differences lie in some of the variations that are available to you with each one. Try both to see which one you like more.
